Press release September 2007
Steven Amedee Gallery is pleased to present Oceans by David Robin. The exhibit will run from October 19 through November 19 with an opening reception for the artist on October 18th at 6 pm.
The 30-inch square pigment prints use high-color and selective focus to explore our perception of and relationship to the sea. These high-color images will be a departure from Robin’s best-known evocative work in the black and white silver medium.
“Growing up in California the ocean was and continues to be a critical component of my life,” Robin says. “It's where I've always gone for perspective. The sea, for me represents the unknown. The potential of what might be. Each person has a unique and personal relationship with the sea. Therefore I've created this series not to be a literal illustration of the sea but as a personal transportive exploration of how we perceive it.
“Ocean Series" is an exploration of a vocabulary of imagery beyond the demands of the literal. I have chosen to create "Ocean Series" using high-color and pattern to encourage the viewer to explore the meditative qualities of the sea beyond the immediately visible.”
